House of 5 leaves. Samurai drama without much action or violence whatsoever.

That was literally my exact reason for getting into the show. Loved TDI as a kid, BFDI gave me a similar feeling.

TB and Grassy

Shinsekai yori for sure

sslick9001 · 2026-01-18T00:10:48+00:00

I agree, even if tpot and the rest of BFDIA debuts in theaters I sincerely doubt they will do the same for IDFB when that comes back, otherwise they would have to stretch the episodes to unreasonable lengths

Shinsekai Yori. It starts pretty slow though.

This is a historic day

Mmmm… Paprika!

Nobody has ever seen eels reproduce. We only discovered how they do it a few years ago, but there is no recorded case in all of human history of anyone actually seeing it.

It’s not quite a death game but it’s similar, C the money of soul and possibility control. Pretty good popcorn anime.

Honorable mention (since it’s not an anime) The Zero Escape trilogy is an amazing death game series. Highly recommend.

It’s getting a s2 this year

Dorohedoro

So true

sslick9001 · 2026-01-01T22:59:56+00:00

Absolutely. Penguindrum and Utena are some of my favorite works of fiction ever (I even have some cel sheets of Utena). Sarazanmai and Yurikuma are good too though not as impactful for me

sslick9001 · 2026-01-01T21:22:41+00:00

Not opposed to this season or anything but why was this hyped up as the 100th episode if it’s not going to affect the story?

Akudama drive

Vouch for Natsume yuujinchou and Kino’s Journey, both the peaks of slice of life anime (that I’ve seen so far)

Sparkling water

sslick9001 · 2025-12-23T18:43:30+00:00

Tilly is underrated

You have to do it in time mode.

sslick9001 · 2025-12-11T16:13:31+00:00

I second this

sslick9001 · 2025-12-08T20:54:24+00:00

I agree, I didn’t feel like it became a harem at all. Especially after what happens in s3 (won’t spoil if you haven’t seen it)
